lol I tried checking universities cgpa requirement but it isn't very clear to me. That is why I came here looking for help. #justlove #nofighting

Well, he is kind of right. In this case, google is your friend.
But most universities accept the equivalent of a Nigerian 2.1 and above

afroxyz:
I intend doing my PhD in Canada. Please what are my chances of getting a job as a lecturer when I finish my programme?

As a post doctoral fellow.... maybe
As a lecturer? Hmmmmm

Perotti:
Hello house,

I will be visiting Canada next week for a program and would like to ask for info on the following:
1. What sort of adaptor do I come along with for my laptop and phone chargers because I learnt the Canadian switches are different from 9ja's own.

2. Do I come with more cash or with my ATM? How much do banks charges cost for atm usage?

3. Are phones and tabs cheaper to buy over there? I checked out bestbuy.ca but I don't know if the prices quoted are paid on installment basis or not.

Thanks

Fhemmy answered this...
i will answer question 2
Banks charge 3 dollars per atm withdrawal. BUT now CBN has this limit thing where you cannot withdraw more than 50,000 naira in a day. that comes to about 350$

badtsharpguy:
Please, what is the Canadian Tax Percentage ??

Depends on the region.... its 15% in Quebec

tunamost: Fellow forumites plz can anyone tell me if it is very possible to secure an admission wit a 3rd class honours to study masters or probably PGD in any canadian university dat has a very cheap tuition fee or probably affordable tuition fee...Plz my aim is to finish my studies in canada and settle down in canada...Plz anyone wit any info of school dat can accept me just incase uve been in my shoes b4 and ur dreams of studying in canada has been archieved or u know someone who had similar wit mine...plz don't hesitate to share d name of d school wit me and how to go abt applying...fanx alot...I awaite ur responses...God bless u all...amen..

I do not know so much... but i dont know any sch dat will take u for masters with a 3rd class. i think it is possible though for PGD. i dont know any sch with "cheap" tuition either. and be careful in ur search as not all schools r good(someone posted a link to approved schools...and someone earlier complained about stoufville).
I suggest u go back just a few pages(between 185 and dis page) to find the list. then go to the website of some of the schools and check out what they offer and their requirements for admission.

uchi4jah: Hi people. Its tomorrow finally. Please, one question: what is that thing that I MUST bring to canada? What should I not forget to bring? What did u wish u carried while travelling? A kind of list.of must take please.....

Congrats and safe trip tomorrow...your excitement is contagious.

Fhemmmy: Na lie . . When you leave delta, get it in lagos and when you get to Toronto, i fit cross you for airport to collect my gala before you go to quebec bush

Oya na... its on!you go chop gala taya

seunlovesa: i use adobe XI and i can write with it. i realised that the link to the Study visa questionnaire opens the questionnaire in an HTML format only........ i need the pdf format

I had this problem with one file though-family info... turns out my adobe reader was unable to read the format. on top of the page,i saw 'open with different viewer" when i clicked this,i was able to fill it using Nitro pdf

Fhemmmy: See ojoro . . . You leave Nija today and you will being in Toronto the following day, how could it be expired . . Go jare.

Hahaha! its not ojoro ohhh! i will leave from Delta state to Lagos 2days ahead of time. then i am going to Quebec(by Gods grace)... dat will be another delay before i can send it to u. so u see?

Fhemmmy: I know oh, but i guess na cos i never chop am in a long time . . . maybe when i try point and kill i will switch but for now, Gala all the way

Okay na.... i'd have promised you some but it'll expire before i get dere!

seunlovesa: [b]dear forumites, how do i fill the " study visa questionnaire"? [/b]tried filling it from my computer but cant place a cursor in the spaces provided..... do i print the form out and fill it using my pen or is there an alternative "pdf fillable" format? if there is, kindly drop it as attachment in my email : seunlovesall@gmail.com

Well,i applied online so i didnt fill dat... but dere r some documents dat u have to print out, fill, den upload. Try using another pdf reader... if that doesnt work,den print it out.
i hope someone who filled it has a better response for you

i_am_saheed: Seconded... Jèdi jèdi on point.... Ermm ild bring fijik flusher along, so u got no prob bro.

Fhemmmy: Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa . . . You MUST get your visa oh, by thunder by fire . . . Father, please grant this man visa no matte what oh.

Your love for gala though!! if we all bring you one, you'll get jedi jedi oh

Nuendo: They haven't requested any fee and board from me. Which makes it all the more strange. I think i should juts go ahead and do the medicals to avoid delay in that department.

I'll check on VFS dis afternoon first if no reply by then, then I'll do the medics tomorrow mrn like that.

Problem is: the hosp i consulted (THE Children's Practice and Consultants, Raymond Njoku, Ikoyi) insist on original passport. Don't know how to go about this.

BESIDES PLEASE FROM THE HOUSE: ARE THERE INDIVIDUALS WHO WERE ISSUED TRV's WITHOUT BEING ASKED TO PAY FEES AND BOARD

i know a couple of people who were not asked to pay fees and board. but these people were on scholarships.
Also, it is possible that after your medicals, you'll receive further instructions.

galala123: Sad to hear about the refusal. Look into the issues raised and plan ahead after you get some rest. The good thing about the online route is that you get your response much faster which is truly better whatever the outcome. Imagine people who wait 3 - 4 months and then eventually get negative feedback. I met 2 people last week who did not make it to see this week. One was knocked down by a vehicle, the other electrocuted in a hotel!. I feel your pain but quickly want to use this opportunity to let you know that "It is well"

Well said

Aduke02: PG... I've done my medicals, waiting for further instructions. You?

PG too. Did my medicals july 17th also awaiting further instructions.
Applied online April 21st.
Trying to pay my tuition for one year now...have you been able to do this?

Aduke02: Hello,
I am heading for McGill University.

Phew! finally! undergraduate or postgraduate? and how far your study permit and trv?

Hello all... please i wanna know if there is anyone here heading for/or already at McGill University or any other Uni in the Quebec region
